bookshelves: contemporary

“You’re like that single wild flower that grows from the crack in the pavement: miraculous growth with no water source or fertile soil. A person walking by would step around that flower to avoid crushing it. It’s not like the field of wild flowers you tromp through carelessly, crushing them under your feet, knowing that the next day will bring a hundred more.”


Raven

[image error]

Raven is not a typical girl.She is a car mechanic and the daughter of a whore.She grew up with her mother's hate and away from her father ,who is a pimp.

Jonah



Jonah is a UFL fighter.He is a womenizer and too frivolous when it comes to a relationship.He lost his dad when he was twelve and that changed him in a bad way.He became a heckler until he discovered that he could use his anger and deal with his pain in a healthier way, by fighting.

Raven starts working for Jonah but she never expected that a guy like him would fall seriously for a girl , as Johah is famous for his one night stands.



The relationship they develop is strong,true and full of passion.

A lifetime would never be enough of Raven.
I'll always hold you when you are scared.
Comfort you when you are sad.
Take care of you when you are sick.
I'll make it a life misssion to make up for every second you were neglected.




Everything is so sweet between them until Domidick , err Dominick appears.

He is the worst father EVER!
When he called her I didnt thought that it would be something important
but I was left speechless.




However , Jonah loves her so much that he is willing to pay any price even if that means that he has to lose a fight , thus losing reputation , disappoint his fans and all those who depend on him.

But these things mean nothing to him when it comes to Raven's safety.

I'll fight for your life as I'd fight for my own.

While I was reading the day of the fight I was so suspicious that something will go wrong.

My feelings:
When Candy (a whore) approached Jonah.

All in all , I really loved this book because of the characters and the interesting plot.Jonah changed for her and felt the joy of being in love with someone.Raven is smart and funny.She never believed that he would love her so much and the whole thing between them was very beautiful.

I cannot wait to read Blake's story.I'm very curious to read his book because he is funny and chases anything with boobs , so I think his story will be interesting.

The reason that I didnt rate it with five stars was the insta love. I'm not such a fan of love at first sight relationships but the story was so good that I overlooked it :-)
